JFK: The Lost Bullet (premieres Sunday 11/20 9 pm et/pt on the NGC)
- Thread starter GPIDEAL
- Start date
seriously.. where does National Geographic come into this? Have they run out of Tree-hugger programs to cover or what? I had thought about this weeks ago when they aired an ad about a National Geographic show regarding people who survived death or something along that line
Max Holland wrote a good book on the LBJ tapes which is historically important.
I do commend him for investigating other leads and examining the other (non-Zapruder) home movie films in enhanced versions, but even Warren Commission defenders will argue that he hasn't gone far enough to prove his case.
The investigation into the JFK assassination is not a trivial matter. It can involve science, logic and critical thinking, yet there are many snake oil salesman involved too.
Actually not a new conspiracy theory but a theoretical explanation for the lost bullet which the Warren Commission didn't have an answer for.
Max Holland believes it was Oswald alone.
The JFK assassination though is like a bottomless pit.

I just did a private tour at Dealey Plaza in Dallas yesterday with a JFK assassination tour guide expert. We were literally at Elm and Houston..... This tour guides opinion was that Oswald acted alone. Oswald was a drug dealer working for Jack Ruby, and the final front head blow came from a hungover SS agent that fired accidentally from in front of Kennedy.
The theories are endless.

Well then, guess he just fled the scene, shot officer JD Tippett, hid in a movie theatre and resisted arrest for shits and giggles.

According to the tour guide I had, he said JD Tippett was a crooked cop that worked for Ruby, and was waiting for Oswald to meet him and drop off payment. Apparently after Oswald attempted to assassinated JFK, he went nuts and killed JD Tippett to keep the cash himself. The cash he was scheduled to drop off for his “buddy” Jack Ruby. I also saw the movie theatre where Oswald was arrested. Pretty freaking cool to see all this. Like it’s an actual place. One thing I learned about dt Dallas, and the whole stretch in general in Dealey Plaza that goes to the triple underpass.... These places are much much smaller looking in person. This part of Dallas has such a small town feel to it.

I have always wondered about three aspects of this story:
1) I have never heard of or read any comments by Jackie Kennedy, the one sitting right beside the president when he was shot. Have I missed it? Seems to me unconscionable that such important information was not made readily available for analysis.
2) Why was the crime scene sanitized immediately? ie., the car.
3) Why has the physics of projectile motion been ignored regarding explaining the motion of the presidents head and the skin flap, and the trajectory (presumed) of the bullet?
Really many more questions, but I will leave it at that.

Regards to question No. 3
I always thought there was a second shooter from the grassy knoll because the way JFK’s head fell back and, well, part of his skull and brains flew back.
But I have read experts saying it wouldn’t be uncommon for that to happen even if the shot came from behind.
Ultimately, I dismissed the conspiracy theories for one main reason: I think it would be impossible to keep everyone involved silent. Someone eventually would talk, certainly on their death bed.

I parked my car in the grassy knoll public parking lot right beside the train tracks. I still can’t believe I was actually there. Going to the Sixth Floor Museum. Then I grabbed a 7/11 hotdog literally on Elm street, up the street, then drove four hours to San Antonio through a lightning storm, and tornado watch lol. This story has so many twists and turns. The biggest ones for me, are Jack Ruby and Oswald being friends. The mob getting kicked out of Cuba under the Castro regime, the Bay Of Pigs fiasco, and Kennedy’s withdrawal for supplying BOP military back up in light of The Cuban Missile Crisis, his agenda for handling Vietnam, RFKs agenda on taking down the mob, the looming threat of another 12 years of Kennedy’s in the White House, LBJ ready to take power and being an old dinosaur puppet that will play along, and last but not least...the JFK firing of Allan Dulles CIA...who ALSO JUST HAPPENED to be on the Warren Commission. Like fuck off! Lol
I think somewhere in the middle of all of that, sheds some light on what might’ve happened. Too much peaceful youth in the White House during this very difficult time to be a president. And yes it is odd that Jackie never spoke publicly about this tragedy. I can’t believe four years before the maple leafs won their last Stanley Cup, the president of the United States was assassinated in broad daylight at the end of the parade.
